Pebble SDK 3.2 - Changelog 2015-07-22

Known issues

  • Taking screenshots from physical watches running firmware 3.2 usually doesn't work. We expect to fix this in firmware 3.3.

Changes to Firmware

  • Improved the reliability of app wakeup service when it is in use by multiple apps.
  • Added generic icons to the Watchfaces app for watchfaces without one.
  • Improved rendering of non-antialiased rounded rectangles.
  • Improved rendering of timeline pins with long body text.
  • Improved rendering of notifications.
  • Improved rendering of timeline pins using the Reminder layout.
  • Improved the music app on Android, in conjunction with the Pebble Time Android app version 3.2.
  • Added settings for backlight brightness and duration.
  • Added settings for notification font size and vibration intensity.
  • Restored the "dismiss all" action on notifications (long press or use the menu).
  • Significantly improved music control reliability on iOS.
  • Improved music control on Android, in conjunction with version 3.2 of the Android app.
  • Fixed a crash when forcibly terminating the launcher.
  • Improved the behavior of the app fetch UI after a bluetooth reconnection.

Changes to SDK

  • ANIMATION_PLAY_COUNT_INFINITE got lost, but it's back now.
  • Added gcolor_legible_over, which returns a color legible over some background color.

Changes to Pebble Tool

We scrapped everything and rewrote it from scratch!

  • Introducing [libpebble2]({{ site.links.libpebble }}), the successor to libpebble. If you want to write tools that interact with a watch, this is the library to use.
  • Also introducing pebble-tool, the successor to the old 'pebble' command, which was also part of libpebble.

The following user-visible changes were made:

  • You can now connect to your phone via the CloudPebble proxy, even if the network blocks local connections. Pass --cloudpebble to do this.
  • The pebble tool will now prompt you to opt in to analytics on first launch. While this is optional, it would be very helpful if you said yes.
    • If you had previously opted out, that will still be respected and the question will be skipped.
  • Analytics are no longer collected synchronously, which should reduce pauses while using the pebble tool.
  • Launching and connecting to the emulator should now be much more reliable.
  • Both aplite and basalt emulators can now run concurrently.
  • There is no longer a default action if no connection is specified. However, if exactly one emulator is running, that will be used by default.
  • Screenshots are now color-corrected by default. Use --no-correction to disable correction.
  • You can now pass a filename to the screenshot command.
  • On OS X, screenshots will automatically open once they are taken. This can be disabled by passing --no-open.
  • Screenshots now display a progress bar while the are taken.
  • --debug and --debug-phonesim have both been removed. They have been replaced by -v.
    • You can use up to four v's (-vvvv) for increased verbosity. At this level, all protocol messages will be displayed in both deserialised and binary forms.
  • pebble build now respects -v (up to three v's) to increase the verbosity of build output.
  • pebble build can now pass arguments to your wscript; place them after a --.
  • Log output from pebble logs and pebble install --logs is now in color.
  • Added pebble logout.
  • pebble wipe now only wipes data for the current SDK version, and will not log you out.
    • To wipe everything, use pebble wipe --everything.
  • pebble app-config has been renamed to pebble emu-app-config.
  • The following commands have been removed: list, rm, current, uuids, coredump.
  • The environment produced by pebble repl has changed: it now provides a libpebble2 PebbleConnection object named pebble and places the pebble protocol messages under protocol.
  • Lightblue support was removed, but direct serial connections are still available using --serial, e.g. --serial /dev/cu.PebbleTimeDF7C-SerialPo.

Changes to Emulator/Phonesim

  • Updated the phone simulator to use libpebble2.
